Another avenue of research would be to check the border crossing records between Canada and the U.S. Most of the records will show the ship on which they traveled to get to this area. This information is normally at the bottom of the page for the "border crossing" Ron Bowman P.O. Box 300472 Escondido, Ca., 92030-0472 (760) 746-3610

This information is normally at the bottom of >the page for the "border crossing" The CAN-US border records (St. Albans Lists) are always a great idea for those researching US destined passengers arriving via Canada, but only from 1895 on. Before that year, although immigrants in the many thousands used that route (especially through the port of Quebec), none of those US border ports were manned, nor were records maintained. http://www.theshipslist.com/Research/canadarecords.htm#St.Albans Sue -- TheShipsList Website http://www.theshipslist.com/
